Avatar

M. Night Shyamalan hat sich in einem Interview mit der LA. Times zu “The Last Airbender” (dt. “Die Legende von Aang“) geäußert. So verriet er unter anderem das Ihn seine 7-jährige Tochter auf die Serie aufmerksam gemacht hat:

“She made us watch as a family and all four of us were hooked, “ Shyamalan said. “I was like, ‘This would make a killer movie.  And my wife who really has been kind of in neutral about my career was insane about it. Insane about it: ‘You have to do it. This is it. This is the one.’ ”

Außerdem hätten Ihm die Buddhistische Lebensanschauung gefallen, und er geht sogar so weit die Serie mit Matrix und Star Wars zu vergleichen:

“Aang himself needs to find balance to be the Avatar and to master each of these elements,” the director said. “We get to see the process of someone mastering themselves through the three seasons to get to peace.”

“In the first ‘Matrix,’ you realize that what you’re seeing is all false,” Shyamalan said. “Those are really ancient ideas. Basic old, old religion. This has that as well. So if you go on the journey and you’ll feel that epiphany on top of a great roller-coaster ride. It’s going to be something.“
